I make snow women....complete with snow cones....mums thinks its offensive.....lol I went back out a bit ago....wow did it snow while I was goofing off indoors....we have about 4 inches of snow on the ground. While I admit it is different and snow hides a world of sins.....it is fleeting and we left with the mess in the long run. While I have no need to go out for anything, I will sit back, drink my coffee and look ugly, two things I excel at.

good for you the warming trend...not really going to see that for about another 4-5 days as predicted.....my grandkids are having a blast....no school (south has no way to deal with snow) and my son came and borrowed the sled to pull the kids around on....they having fun for sure.
-
time to move a bit further south I am thinking...4th snow in 30 years.....that is 4 too many

47 Dodge Turkey Truck Build

good idea, might prevent march hare in your finish... -
statement or question here?
-
yeah you can big guy, it's called catching up on all the things that did not get done because of the stroke....blew right over the IWOYTD, works for me......to make up for it you need to have a IWOYT weekend.....kinda like when you run a red light, you make up for it by stopping twice at the next one.

I am thinking these older tubing gland nuts was 1/16 pipe thread.....you should be able to snag these locally from a hardware store, check in their tubing fittings usually in a plastic display case.

many rear gears are offset and is not a problem to deal with at all....is it invasive, yes to a degree but not at all that difficult to do at home and likelihood of doing a retrofit without body mods is slim. You get out only that you wish to introduce. This is the modified floor section on my 48 business coupe to allow for a wider tunnel for the driveshaft. Photo taken right after welding and primer applied. While I did not install rear disc, I do have fully functional ABS brakes in conjunction with my 12.1 rotors up front. These brakes are amazing on this car.

search does not reveal an event that that took place that I could find entries for the year 2024....and I can account for every day for the entire month of my activites....I kept looking for it to be announced.....stayed quite busy in May 2024, lots done around the house and one short road trip included.
-
can't say for yourself but for me, purposely following the path less taken just to be an individual who refuses to conform to normality bites me in the butt...gotta go your own way is the best phrase. There is no record of a IWOYTD in 2024 on the forum or in my personal daily journal.

I don't recall this taking place last May was my observation and post....

nice 544... -
Many things today are not serviced with a complete manual or for that matter, any true to life specifications. Glad you got this figured out. These heaters are super efficient units.

reading the dictionary could likely induce stuttering......c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c...

I see we blew right over the IWOYTD

No one said it was a walk in the park but yet..it is also not hard if you think outside the box a bit with a bushing in the distributor hole to maintain centric alignment when spinning the pump with the priming shaft also one will make from round stock.
-
there is the slot for the distributor that is driven by the gear that is in turn driven by the cam....so in a stationary engine, the shaft is turned via the slot and thus effectively pump oil.

I think you will find you will need to drop the headliner to remove/replace the wiring as I recall mine was routed and fixed in a fashion one just cannot tug on it and get it removed. As this is old and easy frayed and insulation gets broken off the wires...you wish not to jiggle and jerk on these. Other than the B-post wiring you will have to address if you wish the overhead lighting switch to work.....simple to run new harness from below the floor as is modern vehicles.

Anybody remember the gentleman that had a bearing kit?
Plymouthy Adams replied to DavidJose1's topic in P15-D24 Forum
well, you may need to post a picture of your kit and see if it can be recognized by someone who kept a history of their install. I could do like you and take a guess....but we be back at square one. -

that would depend on the kit and adapter being sold. One kit has a spacer another more of a stepped bush. These are the only two I am familiar with. The stepped bush was to my thinking was of the first kit on the market for these older Mopars. What/where did your kit originate or are you rolling your own. -
and refrain from smacking the end of the axle....the toughest hubs I have ever tried to remove were from a light duty Volvo PV544 with the Salisbury (Euro copy) give me a big enough lever and place to anchor it and I will move the world....

the smarter the electronic device the dumber the user it seems....cursive writing is going the way of the dodo. I can write upside down and backward with both hands in cursive. Maybe not at breakneck speed, but legible. Why....well, why not?

if you cannot read and comprehend the written text, that is a major problem for sure...😊
